NSF Growing Convergence Research Program - Virtual Town Hall

The U.S. National Science Foundation Growing Convergence Research (GCR) team will be hosting a virtual Town Hall webinar to provide information about the 2025 GCR competition. The webinar will include presentations focused on answering questions from prospective applicants about the current GCR solicitation (NSF 24-527), followed by a Question & Answer session.

Convergence research is a means for developing highly innovative solutions to complex research problems. NSF funds interdisciplinary and convergence research through a variety of mechanisms. The aim of GCR is to cultivate and grow the earliest foundations of convergent approaches. As such, proposals submitted to this solicitation are expected to explore novel avenues not previously investigated that are at the forefront of advancing science through deep integration across disciplines.
